Jeri, I was interested in visiting your blog, so I clicked on the link.? I was appalled that you are using the blog to further your political views.? If I want to read a political blog, I will access one.? I wanted to access what you described your blog as below, a 2.0 resource.? The link to the deaths of Iraqis is purely and without exception a political one, expressing your views.? I am not writing to debate you over the issue, as I noticed, as with most propaganda, there was no mention of Iraqi deaths before U.S. intervention and over the past years and centuries of conflict in that area, and, of course, no mention of anything positive we have accomplished there.? My husband is a LTC in the United States Army, something in which I take great pride.? However, I do not use LM_Net or any other educational blog or resource to espouse my political views. You are guilty of false advertising, to say the least, in touting your blog as an educational site for 2.0.? I think that LM_Netters need to be aware that your agenda is not as advertised. Kathy Reel Substitute English Teacher and Librarian Owensboro, KY Kathy502@aol.com -----Original Message----- From: Jeri Hurd <JHurd@KLHT.ORG> To: LM_NET@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU Sent: Sun, 6 Jul 2008 10:16 am Subject: HS interview Pam gave you some good advice. Some more specific Web 2.0 tools to discuss would be online apps like VoiceThread (www.voicethread.com), and Toondoo (www.toondoo.com) , which are sweeping the education world, and using tools like Zotero (a Foxfire add-on) to aid student research/information literacy. You might discuss making the library website interactive through use of blogs where students can post book reviews, podcast tutorials, wiki-based pathfinders, etc. grin--if you don't mind some blatant self-promotion, my blog URL is below; it focuses on the intersection between library, classroom and technology. It might give you some good ideas. When I graduated from library school last year and started interviewing, I hardly had any questions on running a library; almost all were about technology. Most of my friends who interviewed had a similar experience. Good luck!

They are subversive. You think they're just sitting there at the desk, all quiet and everything. They're like plotting the revolution, man. I wouldn't mess with them."
